For almost two years, the offices of **Interscope Records** have been used as a drop off and pickup point for road cases alternately filled with **kilos of cocaine** and more than **$1 million in cash**, according to documents filed by federal prosecutors.

James Rosemond (aka "**Jimmy Henchmen**"), the manager of Interscope artist The Game, has been indicted on 18 felony charges based on 65 pages of [records](http://www.thesmokinggun.com/file/cocaine-shipments?page=0&ref=hypebot.com) from **RockIt Cargo** and statements from former associates who admitted their roles on the operation. In an interview yesterday with Hot97's Angie Martinez in LA, rapper **The Game spoke about Rosemond's arrest:**

> "

Jimmy \[**Henchman\] is my brother**, that's ride or die..It's an unfortunate situation, but we gonna keep our heads up and hope for the best. You **can't even see Osama's body** so why we gonna believe something \[the government\] is saying about Jimmy.”

A Rosemond associate and key member of the cocaine ring , **Khalil Abdullah,** has already pleaded guilty to narcotics trafficking and obstruction of justice charges. Now cooperating with prosecutors, Abdullah [told](http://www.thesmokinggun.com/file/cocaine-shipments?page=1&ref=hypebot.com) investigators that he oversaw the shipment from LA to New York and back of **“road cases” filled with cash and cocaine** worth millions of dollars.

In late December, acting on a tip from Abdullah, DEA agents s**eized a road case containing nearly $800,000** from a New York City recording studio that was scheduled to be delivered to Los Angeles.

Documents released so far do not directly implicate any Interscope employees. Thus far, **Interscope**, owner **Universal Music Group** and high profile Interscope head and "American Idol" judge **Jimmy Iovine** have **not commented** on the accusations.
